A happy and healthy relationship cannot be manipulated, it is based on a foundation of sincerity and honesty. Here are the great tips to maintain such a relationship:
- Be dependable: Keep your promises. When you have agreed to do something carry it out so that people can count on you.
- Accept the other person totally: We are all unique with our strengths and weaknesses. Do not try to change the other person.
- Communicate openly: Listen with an open mind and do not interrupt. Ask questions to clarify a point and share your thoughts.
- Be healthy: Keep fit and promote a healthy lifestyle and encourage others to do so. Stay away from drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes.
- A caring attitude: See the other person‘s point of view and offer help. Let people know you are prepared to help and you can be depended on. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Remember friends and relatives’ birthdays and send appropriate gifts to them. Not just any gift, something they long to have. Life is more fulfilling when you care.
- Show appreciation: Praise more and criticize less. Even when you want to be critical start with praise.
- Lasting relationships: There will be challenges along the way and we have to adapt to changes. A good relationship has to work at it over time. Only time can tell a truly healthy and happy relationship.
